When a woman agrees to carry and deliver your baby for you, she is referred to
as the host or surrogate,and the process is known as surrogacy.

Who needs a surrogate?

Surrogacy may be appropriate if you have a medical condition that makes it
impossible or dangerous to get pregnant and give birth for e.g you may have had
a hysterectomy or you may have a medical condition where pregnancy would be
detrimental to your own health. The surrogate will be screened medically and
pshycosocially for the same. Ideally the surrogate should be under 36 and have
completed their own family.
